Résumé:
In this work we’re trying to study the degradation of soil using remote sensing and deographical information systems (GIS) to map areas at risk of erosion in a semi-arid region (in the case of the watershed of oued Deffa ,wilaya of El Bayadh). And produce a map of erosion that can be used as a document of reference for decision support.
The methodology is to integrate into a geographic information system factors controlling erosion the erobility of the rains ,and the slope method BONFILS derived erosion risk map shows three areas of vulnerability to erosion by water.
